Review # 1 was written on 2019-11-22 00:00:00 Brandon Betts The butterfly effect, nonlinear functions Vs. Linear, turbulence, fractal art, chaos theory, strange attractors, juxtapositions, reflectaphors, and so many more intriguing topics were discussed in this book. The ones I find most interesting are Hyperion’s strange, unpredictable orbit around Jupiter, which since the times of Newton has remained unexplained. Fractals in general can be used to explain so many aspects of reality. It is a great fortune to have computers capable of rendering and displaying these intricate formulas. It brings us one step closer to replicating the natural world. Self-similarity is very apparent on many scales on earth. Even the nebulous clouds in space are reminiscent of the clouds here on Earth. Atoms resemble solar systems, it is as if life is one big fractal. |
Review # 2 was written on 2012-06-08 00:00:00 Nikolay Motev John Briggs takes us on a magical journey into the world of fractals and to the limits of the human imagination. A marvelous marriage of science, mathematics, nature, and art. "In Fractals: The Patterns of Chaos, science writer John Briggs uses over 170 illustrations to clearly explain the significance -- and more importantly, the beauty -- of fractals. He describes how fractals were discovered, how they are formed, and the unique properties different fractals share. Fractals is a breathtaking guided tour of a brand new aesthetic of art, science, and nature. It will revolutionize the way you see the world and your place within it." |
